This pie is a traditional local butcher's pie:
Popular with the Victorians, the pork pie, with its hot water crust pastry is still a favourite today. The ideal picnic food, the pork pie works well with all sorts of salads and is set off with a dollop of pickle.
While you should ask no deep questions about the content of a supermarket pork pie, this month's pie, purchased at F.Funks, Pork Butchers on Middlewood Rd, Hillsborough, Sheffield, contained discernible pieces of meat.
The jelly of a pork pie always arouses passions. This pie contained enough to snuggle the meat without being too much. A pie with much to recommend it.
